PopTodd Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Oh yeah!The Replacements -- 2(the second time was at their final show at Grant Park) Neutral Milk Hotel -- 2(once at an in-store and once at Lounge Ax) and:Cornershop -- 3(once as a headliner, once as an opener, and once at an in-store) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Most of these shows are a feat in themselves as I am at minimum 7 hours away from any major city. Wilco - 9Neil Young - 3Ron Sexsmith - 3Dylan - 2 There is evidently more (and one that I wish I could see more) but if I can't remember them it's not that important.

dondoboy Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Wow that must have been something... The last tour was by far the best though. The sound was just blistering. So heavy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
isadorah Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 it is an ongoing competition between Wilco and Bob Dylan for me. I think Wilco has 1 more than Bob right now to be my most seen band live. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lamradio Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 The last tour was by far the best though. The sound was just blistering. So heavy. I bet it was.. I was just getting into Nirvana when Kurt screwed the pooch, so I never got a chance to see them live. I've seen Weezer 4 times, but probably never will again. Wilco only 3 times (once in 97.. so I'm cool) and soon to be 4 Other than that, I've seen dozens of bands once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Frank Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I've seen Bjork six times, each time was a joy to experience (although her last couple of albums were a bit too much for me to stomach). Seen Dylan a bunch of times too. Dylan probably accounts for my best and worst concert experinces. When he good he's untouchable, when he's on an off night....it's hard going.

Bob didn't let me down. Best concert of my life. It was the Bob/Doug/Nate/Tim/JimmyMac lineup. That show is famous for being the one that started the douse-Bob-with-beer craze. Next time they came to Orlando, Bob walked onto stage wearing a raincoat and goggles. Funny guy. Nope, didn't make it to the farewell show. My last GbV show was November 2003 in Atlanta. I have yet to see Bob in concert, post-GbV. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
